Gorgeous, ladies, and thank you so much for your beautiful cards and inspiration. I know our followers will be inspired by your work to create cards of their own.

Remember everyone, that you have two weeks to get your cards done and you can post them below or as a comment on our Facebook page.

Before I go, it is time to say "good bye" to another of our long time designers. Nicole has decided to leave us. Her life is just too hectic and she needs to scale back her card making. I will miss her greatly and I am sure you will miss seeing her beautiful work. Join me in wishing her the best and also in hoping to see her back some day.

That being said, we have an opening on our team if you are interested, please email me at cherylsteve.robinson@gmail.com with three samples of your work and a link to your blog before March 1st.

Hello to all of you crafty people! I am glad you could join us again this week. If you are new, I am sure you will find this a fun spot to visit. If you are a regular viewer, welcome back.As always, we begin with the photo for the week. Today I have an image I took of two Bohemian Waxwings sharing one apple. There must have been two hundred of these birds in our apple tree yesterday just pecking at the apples that did not fall before winter came - nature's bird feeder.

Now, normally we go on to our top three...but, unfortunately, we only had two cards entered for challenge #256. So I thought I would show you both cards. They were beautiful and both deserve a round of applause.

Hello everyone! Let me begin this post by offering you all an apology. Our linkytool expired for a day and I did not realize it. I knew it was almost renewal time but did not receive a notice. It was back up and running within a couple of hours of me finding out. I am truly sorry if anyone tried to post an entry and could not. All is good now though so lets get on with it.Our photo this week is one I took in the snow the other day and gave a slightly blue edit in post processing.

Great examples from our team! I am sure they will inspire lots of participation from our visitors out there. Remember, our challenge runs until February 23rd and you can enter below or on our Facebook page.

Before I go I just wanted to let everyone know that Sarah Cameron (who has been with us for over 4 years, I believe) is taking a well deserved six month leave to devote more time to the necessities of her busy family life. She will be missed and I will be counting the weeks until she returns. Please join me in wishing her the best. That being said, Lynne Jardine has kindly agreed to join our team so let's welcome her with open arms and kind comments on her blog.
